Then they should be out of whatever sport they are involved with. To be fair (whether it sounds like I'm ignorant or not) I'm not familiar with 1 or 2 of those names.


But I do remember reading about a lot of those people. C.J. Hunter had the clear with her AT the Sydney games. Her husband at the time also reportedly said he injected her at times and sometimes she injected herself. This all took place during the games.


Mickey Grimes is another US track star to test positive. Jerome Young. Dwain Chambers. John McEwen. Ben Johnson. The list goes on.


Greek track stars Kostas Kederis (defending 200m gold medalist) and Katerina Thanou (defending 100m silver medalists) were mysteriously AWOL for their drug test, which they had done in 2003 and something which is tantamount to admitting guilt as you can be suspended for missing your drug test. Later, they claimed to have turned their cell phones off, and to be in a minor motorcycle accident, which prevented them from showing up at their hearing for missing the test.

LOL right.

(edit - I seriously had no idea Armstrong tested positive. Could I bother you for a link by chance, Moon?)
